Explore Lynnwood, Washington, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lynnwood, Washington. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Washington or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lynnwood.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Lynnwood occupies a landscape where the verdant, moisture-heavy air of the Pacific Northwest defines the rhythm of every passing day. It lies 1.5 miles west of Alderwood Manor, WA (from Alderwood Manor, WA: bearing 267°T), and is situated 4.7 miles north-northeast of Shoreline. Within the borders of Lynnwood, the landscape remains defined by the presence of Scriber Lake, which anchors the serene environment of Scriber Lake Park. To the west, the land slopes toward the salt-tinged atmosphere of Browns Bay, situated a mere two miles from the neighborhood centers. The terrain features the quiet, persistent flow of Hall Creek, which cuts a narrow path through the local woods. On the clearest mornings, the jagged, snow-dusted profile of the Olympic Mountains emerges on the western horizon, offering a stark contrast to the low-lying basin of Lunds Gulch.
Lynnwood emerged from a history rooted in the timber industry and the steady expansion of regional transit lines that connected the surrounding forests to the broader economy. Early settlers relied on the dense evergreen stands, eventually transitioning into a hub that mirrors the modern commercial growth of the surrounding region. Today, the local economy functions as a vital intersection of retail, professional services, and suburban industry that supports a diverse population. The quiet movement of people through its corridors reflects a shift away from the isolated lumber camps of the past toward a more interconnected, urbanized existence. Small businesses and larger commercial centers now utilize the infrastructure originally laid down by those early pioneers who first cleared the land.
Lynnwood maintains a distinct character that balances the quietude of its natural spaces with the industrious pulse of its current residents. Scriber Lake Park serves as a central gathering point, where the light shifts across the water as the evening fog rolls in from the coast. While the community enjoys its own local identity, it remains linked to the wider region through access to distant paths like the Burke Gilman Trail. Among the notable figures who have spent time within these environs is the musician Duff McKagan, who grew up in the area and later gained international recognition. The pace of life here feels measured, marked by the long, grey winters and the sudden, intense vibrancy of the local spring. It is a place where the proximity of the water and the presence of the distant peaks inform the quiet, persistent spirit of those who reside here.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
